at a lecture delivered at Bristol,
said that twenty-seven patients
had been cured Of their intemper-

A Congressional contest Of more than
usual importance Is that Of Judge Robert
Lowry, demecrat, against James b. White,
republican, in the Twelfth Indiana Dis
trict. Counting that state,the republicans
have control Of twenty state delegations In
the House Of Representatives, just sufii-
cient to elect president in case the elec-
ton should be thrown into the House.
Should Judge Lowry be given Mr.. Whites
seat II would turn the Indiana delegation
over TO the democrats, which, while Il
would not give them sufficient states to
elect, would 50 reduce the republican ma.
jority as to make that party powerless. As

her false, III whistle her off and let her
down the wind a prey to fortune, cen
though her very cries were my dead
heart-strings.'
Negroes are the best whistlcrs in the
world. Frequently one hears a colored
improvisatore whistling the quaintest
and sweetest melodies, and with the
colored males in general whistling
comes as natural as grupting does to a
hog.

All About an Umbrella.

An umbrella was carried off lately
from the editorial rooms Of a Georgia
paper, and III the next number of the
paper appeared this paragraph: "The
man who came into my office and de.
liberately stole my umbrella is worse
than a thief and meaner than an assas-
sin, lower than a blackguard and
uglier than a crazy quilt. May each
rain-drop that falls upon it turn into
drops of blazing %vitriol, and each u
ray bristie with 10000 pointed needles
dipped in acrid poison to prick his
putrid flesh.
